Novitiate

The fundamental period of religious formation is the novitiate. In our congregation the novitiate lasts 2 years , the first year the canonical year, being designated for intensive spiritual formation. The novice mistress guides the formation process and instructs the novices in subjects such as the interior life, knowledge of the congregation, its history, spirituality, constitutions, rules, and apostolic works.
After the first year of novitiate, the novices go for regency in our convents and begin to work in the various fields of our apostolate together with professed sisters, as part of their training. During the final two months - before the first profession of the vows of obedience, chastity and poverty - the novice returns to an intense period of prayer and recollection.Temporary Profession:

The goal of the Juniorate is the unfolding and deepening of the temporarily professed sisters vocation by practical life experiences and helping her on to maturity. Programmes during this period should provide the sister with solid spiritual and doctrinal formation which is of prime importance, together with professional studies, community experience and apostolic involvement. As a preparation of perpetual profession all the temporarily professed sisters shall make one year of common Juniorate. Final Profession and Ongoing formation
After a period of six years in temporary vows and following a period of preparation and prayerful discernment sisters make Final Profession. Continuing formation is important because the religious is not simply called and consecrated once. Formation has to be effected in a consecrated person through her life time, through constant study, exercise and formation. The call of God and the consecration by Him continue throughout life to its final consummation, when the religious meets the Lord definitively in death." (Essential Elements, 44).
